Low confidence

Why the model favours this outcome

The model sees FC Schalke 04's home attacking output as weaker than the Bundesliga baseline. The model expects fewer away goals given FC Schalke 04's home defensive numbers. Sample size is still small this season, so the model leans more heavily on longer-term ratings and lowers its confidence accordingly.
